Description

Karakter Principal Counter Stool.

The Principal Stool is inspired by Bodil Kjær’s Principal Chair from 1961 and maintains the chair’s functional and minimalist design.

Characterized by a simple and honest use of form and material, the Principal series is timeless in every way. Carefully designed down to the smallest detail, it offers a durable piece that will be cherished for generations.

Balancing a geometric structure with soft organic shapes, the piece presents a simple structure that dispenses with unnecessary details in favor of a minimal design. The all-wood execution of the design embodies the essence of the series. With an emphasis on clarity and simplicity, every aspect of the design fulfills a function, down to the smallest detail.

The entire Principal series can be upholstered in textiles from Kvadrat and leather from Sørensen Leather.

Dimensions: Height 64 cm, Width 43.5 cm, Depth 43.5 cm, Seat depth 48 cm, Seat height 46 cm.

About the designer:

She has been featured in The New York Times and Wall Street Journal Magazine. She designed a desk for MIT that was called ‘The most beautiful desk in the world’ and was eventually immortalized in three early James Bond films. Danish architect, designer and professor Bodil Kjær (born 1932) is the female pioneer of Danish design from the 1950s, who, although she was taught by modernist master Finn Juhl, in her own words “... never had much interest in following in the footsteps of the Danish rat gang.”.

Kjær looked to America, inspired by Charles and Ray Eames, and many of her most striking designs stem from her time in the US, where she worked briefly at Paul McCobb before moving to Boston to pursue her career in corporate interior design. Kjær’s renewed fame as a designer in later years has been well deserved.

Understated, elegant and decidedly modern, her iconic pieces fit effortlessly into contemporary life 60 years later. Today, Bodil Kjær is back in Denmark, living on the east coast of Jutland, where she continues to teach, research and participate in the architectural development of the city of Aarhus.
